It means we’re off the hook for the additional tax on the salary we already paid him. At least I think. Or maybe just the cash we got back offsetting that.
In any case, it’s not a financial move. Ryan Smith doesn’t make moves because finances. We just really like Oni and wanted him to have a chance to shine elsewhere, so we did him a solid. And we gave OKC a pick because we were doing them a solid for helping us do Oni a solid. Oni should get some good playing time in OKC… err… uh… yeah, we did this for Oni. Not to save money.
